“It is fear that drives [the hippies] to seek the warmth, the protection, the safety of a herd. When they speak of merging themselves into a "greater whole," it is their fear that they hope to drown in the undemanding waves of unfastidious human bodies - and what they hope to fish out of that pool is the momentary illusion of an unearned personal significance.”

“Fear walks out of the door when there is hope around. My fear start trembling when it senses the presence of hope and When fear sees the hand of hope in my hands, it runs away.”

“There is no hope unmingled with fear, and no fear unmingled with hope.”

“What is stronger, fear or hope?”

“Sir Topher finally looked up. “Because any hope beyond that, my boy, would be too much. I feared we would drown in it.”
"Then I choose to drown,” Finnikin said. “In hope. Rather than float into nothing.”

“Hope is a timid thing,
Fearful, and weak, and born in suffering;
At least, such Hope as human life can bring.”

“If a person has no hope, he is truly blessed because that person has no fear of failure.”

“What you hope for, you also fear.”

“Farewell Hope, and with Hope farewell Fear”

“Well may the boldest fear and the wisest tremble when incurring responsibilities on which may depend our country's peace and prosperity, and in some degree the hopes and happiness of the whole human family.”
